Popis: Abstract The effects of microglial activation on the associations between depression and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are still unclear. TREM2 gene plays a pivotal role in microglial activation, has been identified as a risk factor for AD. In this work, we aimed to assess the interrelationships of soluble TREM2 (sTREM2) level in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), minimal depressive symptoms (MDSs), and CSF amyloid markers. The linear regression analyses were conducted on 796 cognitively unimpaired participants from the CABLE (Chinese Alzheimer’s Biomarker and LifestylE) study. Causal mediation analyses with 10,000 bootstrapped iterations were used to test the mediation effects. In addition, similar statistical analyses were performed in subgroups stratified by sex, age, and APOE ε4 carrier status. In total subjects, MDSs were associated with lower CSF sTREM2 levels (p
